Birther /börthör/ n.  1. A person who exhibits the audacity to read the U.S. Constitution, and then demands that his/her government actually obeys it.  2. A derogatory term developed and used by Leftists and Neo-Cons in a lame attempt to marginalize those who harbor the silly notions that Truth matters, and that Republics perish who refuse to uphold the Rule of Law.

Read It. Demand Compliance.

TR:  The United States of America is NOT a Democracy.  It is, and always has been, a voluntary confederation of 50 free and independent REPUBLICS.  The States formed the federal government as its agent, by delegating a small, limited, enumerated amount of authority to it.  Nothing more, nothing less.

Washington, because is it completely out of control and we have yet to stop it, now believes it rules supreme an American Empire, where the States have somehow been demoted to mere Provinces who must obey the Emperor.  Nothing could be further from the truth – it is exactly the other way around.  ALL sovereignty lies with the separate and independent States which authorize a federal government only by the voluntary CONSENT of their respective Peoples.

Reclaim your individual Liberty before it has been completely coerced into submission!

A Constitutional Refresher for Leftists

Washington didn’t use his right to Free Speech to defeat the British – he shot them.

Any Questions?

Exercising our Natural Rights - to SECURE them.

Some liberals have actually criticised this historical depiction by not only saying that it’s not kosher to settle disagreemensts with bullets, of course, but worse the fact that the Amendments I & II did not exist at this time, before the Constitution was even penned!

How do you think George Washington should respond to this seemingly incisive criticism??

Jefferson Paine:  We “Birther” fringers just want a simple answer to a simple question.  We want the Truth:  Where’s Barack Hussein Obama II’s proof that he meets the requirements of the U.S. Constitution? – namely, that he is a “Natural Born Citizen” of the United States.  Still waiting…   Just when will we get the truth?

The burden of proof has always been, and remains, upon the current Usurper, BHO II.  It is absurd to ask someone to prove that he isn’t a Natural Born Citizen since proving a negative is always an impossibility.  This is not rocket science – so why does BHO II continue to employ an army of lawyers to hide and seal any and all documentation as to who this occupant of our White House actually IS??  Ask yourself, WHY this is?

In order for Mr. Obama to be Constitutionally eligible to serve as our President, he must prove that he is (a) currently a Citizen of the U.S., and (b) was born on U.S. soil to parents who were both U.S. Citizens.  Pursuant to requisite (a), he claims he was born in Hawaii, although NO ONE can verify it.  If he wasn’t born in HI, then Game Over.  IF he ever proves HI as his birthplace, then he’s not close to being done here.  When he became an Indonesian citizen, did he ever re-naturalize in the U.S. upon or after his return?  No One knows.  Secondly, he must also pass requisite (b) his mother was presumably a U.S. Citizen upon BHO II’s birth, although because of her age and shotgun wedding, it is unclear whether she could confer full citizenship to her son because there is no documentation to prove one way or the other on any of this.  And, lastly, Obama’s father BHO I, was a Kenyan national who also retained British colonial citizenship – which, for purposes of BHOII being a “Natural Born Citizen” – it’s GAME OVER.  Sorry folks – he’s an Usurper of the Presidency of the U.S.  Unless he can prove otherwise.. (but it will require him renouncing his own father’s identity per The One’s audacious autobiography..)

Where’s The Evidence?

by Joseph Farah, Worldnetdaily Exclusive Commentary

The Distinct Scent of Secession is in the Air.

The cacophony is growing.

There is a din of media outrage being expressed.

Pundits and talking heads are losing their heads – not to mention their cool.

Over what?

It’s not health care.

It’s not cap and trade.

It’s not even whether Barack Obama thinks black people are always right and cops are always wrong.

It’s whether the man sitting in the White House for the last six months is constitutionally eligible.

About three months ago, some of you will remember, I set out to make this happen. I launched a billboard campaign with just this goal in mind – raising the visibility of the story, which had been all but forgotten because of the bailouts, the stimulus packages and the government grab for power under the new regime.

A person is unequivocally required by the U.S. Constitution to be a Natural Born Citizen in order to legally occupy the Office of the President of The United States (POTUS).  Usurper Barack Hussein Obama continues to refuse to produce any such evidence that he actually is a Natural Born Citizen.      -Jefferson Paine

Why Obama wants to hide birth certificate

By Joseph Farah, WorldNetDaily

Since I began my quixotic campaign to uncover Barack Obama’s birth certificate, many have asked me about the president’s possible motives for hiding it with such tenacity and diligence.

I think there are many plausible motives:

• Perhaps something in that birth certificate, if it indeed exists, would contradict assertions Obama has made about his life’s story. These might even involve his true parental heritage. Without a real birth certificate, no one really knows who his parents were. So it is ridiculous even to speculate about whether citizenship could be conferred upon him by his mother, when we don’t know for sure who his mother is.
• Perhaps it reveals a foreign birth, as Hawaii allowed for in 1961 while still issuing the “certification of live birth” we have seen posted on his website.
• Or perhaps it will show just what Obama has claimed all along – a birth in Hawaii to two officially non-citizen parents, for the purpose of establishing “natural born citizenship” under the Constitution.

What do I mean by that last possibility?

Well, as you know, in 2008, the Senate of the United States held hearings to determine if one of the presidential candidates fulfilled the requirement of being a “natural born citizen.” It wasn’t Barack Obama. It was John McCain, who was born on a U.S. military base overseas to two U.S. citizens.

Start your own eligibility billboard campaign in your neighborhood with WND’s new yard signs, asking: “Where’s the Birth Certificate?”

On April 10 of last year, two senators, both Democrats, Patrick Leahy of Vermont and Claire McCaskill of Missouri, introduced a resolution into upper house expressing a sense of the Senate that McCain was indeed a “natural born citizen.”

It’s interesting what Leahy had to say on the subject: “Because he was born to American citizens (emphasis added), there is no doubt in my mind that Senator McCain is a natural born citizen. I expect that this will be a unanimous resolution of the U.S. Senate.”

And, indeed it was. It was also, interestingly, the only such hearing held by the Congress on the subject of “natural born citizenship” and its application to the 2008 presidential race. Why was that interesting? Because everyone involved in this process knew – or should have known – that the life story told by Barack Obama would raise far more doubts about his eligibility than McCain’s.

Notice Leahy did not say one parent citizen would qualify a child for “natural born citizenship.” He indicted it would take two to tango.

He did so again at a Judiciary Committee hearing April 3, when he asked then-Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff, a former federal judge, if he had any doubts about McCain’s eligibility to serve as president.

“My assumption and my understanding is that if you are born of American parents, you are naturally a natural-born American citizen,” Chertoff responded – again underlining the fact that both parents would need to be citizens.

And what did Leahy say to that? “That is mine, too.”

By the way, Obama voted for this resolution, so he obviously agrees with the definition of what constitutes a “natural born citizen” – the offspring of two U.S. citizens.

Can We Resuscitate our Flat-lined Constitution?

Now, I don’t know who Barack Obama’s parents are, because I have never seen his birth certificate. All I’ve seen is a facsimile of a “certification of live birth” on the Internet. That document, even if genuine, proves nothing about Obama’s birth in Hawaii or who his parents were. Hawaii had a very slipshod practice in 1961 of issuing these documents to babies born outside the country and listing parents who may not have been the parents at all.

But I do know who Barack Obama claims his parents were. According to him, neither one of them was an American citizen able to confer natural born citizenship on a child. One, Barack Obama Sr., was a foreign national from Kenya, and the other, Stanley Ann Dunham, was too young to have qualified under the law for bestowing that privilege on her son, even if the father had been a citizen and even in the unlikely event Obama was actually born in Hawaii!

So, if we are to take Obama at his word, he is not a natural born citizen and not eligible to serve as president.

If he is to be judged by the same standard as his opponent in the race, there is no way he qualifies. That’s what Leahy said. That’s what Chertoff said. That’s what the law says.

A logical question naturally follows: Why didn’t the Congress of the United States hold hearings on Obama’s eligibility when they did so on McCain’s eligibility?

I’m still trying to figure that one out. Maybe the answer is this simple: Because there’s no way Obama would have qualified.

Another logical question follows: Why is this man still serving in the White House and turning the country upside down when he is not even constitutionally eligible?

That’s the heart and soul of the campaign I’ve been running.

By the way, further establishing that it was impossible for Obama to have been a “natural born citizen” are some astonishing words found on his own campaign website. They indicate that Obama was “at birth” a citizen of Kenya and a subject of Great Britain.Why did the founders insist upon a “natural born citizen” clause in the Constitution? To avoid questions of divided loyalties. (Just scroll down the webpage and read the FactCheck.org excerpt to see this amazing admission for yourself.)

So, again, I ask: Why doesn’t Obama want to reveal his real birth certificate? Because he wants this discussion of eligibility to go away – once and for all. It is a vulnerability he cannot explain away. So he would rather not discuss it at all.

But let me remind you all, in case you hadn’t considered this: Obama plans to run for re-election in 2012. And that’s why we can never, ever let this matter rest.

Congress Should Consider Empowering Private Action Against Thugs of the High Seas

By Christine Hall, Competitive Enterprise Institute

To the Shores of Somali

Washington, D.C., April 9, 2009- News that Somali pirates had seized an American ship and, after being repelled, held her captain hostage drew a response from analysts at the Competitive Enterprise Institute: the United States should consider authorizing private parties to attack pirate ships under little used instruments called “letters of marque and reprisal.”

The letters, specifically authorized in the Article 1 section 8 of the U.S. Constitution, allow private parties to attack and seize the property of other parties that have committed violations of international law. Congress has the power to grant the letters. The United States made significant use of them during the Revolutionary War and the War of 1812 and never joined 19th Century treaties in which European nations forswore their use. The U.S. issued letters of marque to ships during the Spanish-American War of 1898; and a civilian operated airship, The Resolute, operated under a letter marque during World War II. The letters also have a long history prior to the establishment of the United States. Elizabethan-era explorer and adventurer Sir Francis Drake operated under a letter of marque.

“The world has changed a lot since nations last made significant use of letters of marquee and reprisal. If Congress were to decide to issue them, it would certainly have to revisit the concept,” said CEI Senior Fellow Eli Lehrer. “It’s the type of free-market solution to a real problem that Congress should consider but hasn’t in any serious way.” Lehrer added.

CEI policy analyst Michelle Minton agreed. “American citizens have the right to defend themselves, regardless of their location,” said Minton. “If international governing bodies fail at the task, which repeated pirate attacks seem to indicate, the US government should do something,” she said. “Issuing letters of marque are one way to foster the protection of American citizens abroad without requiring an American military presence in foreign territory.”

Obraham Lincoln?

 -NC:
As the United States continues to crumble before our eyes through wide-open borders, continued ignorance of the Death-cult of Islamo-fascism, abortion of beautiful infants by the millions, oppression of Free Speech coinciding with the death of an objective “Free Press”, a once-vaunted Constitution now in tatters, a bona fide Usurper occupying The White House, and a Congress growing more bloated and corrupt than ever before… 

We here at No Compromises will still be forever bound by a quest for eternal Truths wherever that may lead. In so doing, we’d like to present this special, in-depth series examining the hagiofication of the ever-growing deity status that continues to be heaped upon our 16th President of The United States – Abraham Lincoln.

By -Jefferson Paine

Some Facts about Abraham Lincoln and the “Civil War” You Never Learned in School:

• 1) Kentucky-born, Abraham “Honest Abe” Lincoln was professed to be a “self-educated” lawyer. He acted as a clerk for three months in the state militia. Beyond “rail-splitting” ostensibly, he failed at running a small store, postmaster, and surveyor before he excelled at politics. He served as an Illinois state legislator and spent only one term in the U.S. House of Representatives. Active in the Whig Party, and later, a mover and shaker in Republican circles, be became quite a successful, wealthy and powerful lawyer, lobbyist, then legislator primarily favoring the Railroad industry. Being a Hamiltonian political descendant and a heavy railroad benefactor, he naturally favored high protective tariffs (aka Protectionism, which plundered the agrarian South economically), strong centrally-controlled banking (aka Inflationism, via a federal, centralized-banking system), and strong collusion between government and prominent industrialists (aka Mercantilism, the leviathan Nationalized-Industrial Complex).
•  
• 2) Many in the North, especially Lincoln, believed that they were technologically, if not morally, superior to the mostly agrarian Southerners, and thus believed it was their right to usurp the south’s individual sovereignties and plunder their meager commerce by imposing high protective tariffs – started by the Whigs in 1830’s.
•  
• 3) Lincoln was anything but a humanitarian, or an Abolitionist – and through today’s prism, he would be rightly deemed a “racist”. Lincoln always believed Whites to be superior and ought to live without other races diluting them. He only wished he could have found a final “solution” for the Negro problem – a politically viable way to deport them en masse.
•  
• 4) The practice of slavery in the U.S. was already on a path to natural emancipation because slave-labor was ultimately recognized to be uncompetitive with a free labor marketplace as realized in Europe. By 1840, the institution of slavery was ceased throughout the British Empire, and by 1854 slaves in virtually all European countries and their colonies had been freed. Only a small percentage of Southern men ever owned slaves – an even smaller percentage actually fought in the War.
•  
• 5) Lest we dismiss Jefferson Davis, President of the Confederate States of America as some sort of loon, or fascist who wished to “Destroy the Union”, let’s take a look at Lincoln’s contemporary counterpart. Davis, also born in Kentucky, attended Catholic school, Jefferson College, Transylvania University, and West Point. He was a Planter, an Army officer, Colonel in the Mexican War, Two-term U.S. Senator, and U.S. Secretary of War in the 1850’s. Throughout the secession movement, he made it clear via innumerable speeches where he declared the exercising of one’s natural and legal right to secede was to be peaceful, and was never motivated by violence or any imperialistic impulse. I.e. There never was ANY threat made to the original Union.
•  
• 6) Robert E. Lee, a highly successful graduate and former commander of West Point, was actually offered by Lincoln the command of all Union forces in April 1861 before hostilities opened up in earnest. Lee, a prominent resident of Virginia, who was not an advocate of secession, turned down Lincoln’s offer and within a few days accepted command of the southern Army of Northern Virginia for, as the State of Virginia was his native Country, his conscience would not let him bear arms against his own, innocent people – against his fellow countrymen!
•  
• 7) Arlington Cemetery, which sits just across the Potomac river from Washington, D.C. is the former estate of Robert E. Lee and his wife Mary Custis (a descendant of Martha Washington), where their former residence before the War, Arlington House, still sits on the hill now surrounded by fields of headstones. Later in the war, as casualties continued to pile up and hospitals and existing cemeteries overflowed, the Lincoln administration commandeered a portion of Lee’s land and began burying the war’s dead upon his estate.
•  
• 8} The War Between the States was fought because Lincoln wanted dearly to crush and to punish the ‘rebel’ States who dared to exercise their natural right to secede, who formed their new confederation of sovereign states to serve and to represent their own, unique way of life (severing Yankee intrusion, control, raw coercion, and interference).
•  
• 9) The Civil War or the War Between the States should be more accurately named “The War of Northern Aggression“, “The War for Federal [Northern] Supremacy“, or the “War for Southern Independence“. The millions on both sides of the war, engaged in the world’s bloodiest of clashes, however, never charged into battle yelling, “To Free the Slaves!”
•  
• 10) Fort Sumter, which protected Charleston Harbor, was occupied by a Federal garrison of troops who were ordered to refuse to vacate themselves from the fort built upon South Carolina soil. The sovereign South Carolinians, the first state who had already seceded, provided motivation for the Feds to vacate their protective installation by commencing a thorough shelling of the fort. Ironically, even though not a single Union soldier was killed before they surrendered, let alone seriously injured during the bombardment, the event provided just the excuse, the ‘flashpoint’ Lincoln was seeking in order to justify his imminent invasion of the Confederacy.
•  
• 11) Lincoln started the War wholesale by invading the South, through Virginia and elsewhere, with the most modernly equipped armies in world history. Initially, Lincoln called up 75,000 troops from Northern States when it was believed that their seceding cousins, the “Rebels”, could be taught a stinging lesson rather quickly – dissuading them by muzzle and bayonet from their fantasies of God-given Sovereignty (as outlined in the Constitution).
•  
• 12) After being beaten, badly for nearly the entire war, Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation, in the wake of the Union victory at Gettysburg – few realized it amounted to a gimmick of sorts to incite Southern slaves to rise up, come to the North to fight against their owners, thus attempting to break the back of labor supporting the Confederate war machine. This was issued strictly as a war measure however dressed up as humanitarian.
•  
• 13) The Emancipation Proclamation, made up of two separate Executive Orders, actually proclaimed to free only those slaves who existed on soil uncontrolled by Union forces, and exclusively in Confederate States. No blacks were ordered “freed” in the North, or in border-States where slavery was legal, but who did not secede from the Union – and therefore were not deemed as “rebelling.” (FYI -The concept of ‘Executive Orders’ does not appear in the U.S. Constitution!)
•  
• 14) Eventually, when most people in the North had had enough of Lincoln’s military incompetence, and there was huge controversy among the population as to a clear, moral ’cause’ which could justify such large-scale, savage carnage, Lincoln eventually ordered the conscription of sufficient cannon fodder he thought could win – he ordered the first military DRAFT in U.S. history – because he realized that the North could always throw away the lives of many times more men than the South could ever field – simply due to the North’s comparatively larger population size.
•  
• 15) Lincoln, a very clever politician and orator, invented the vague, yet barely satisfying, concept of “Saving the Union,” while utterly ignoring the essential Constitutional concept of States’ Sovereignty, of FREE and INDEPENDENT STATES voluntarily UNITED, as the ‘Great Cause’ which he used to rally a very restless constituency in the North to fight on nearly interminably.
•  
• 16) Lincoln’s “Great Cause” cost the lives of over 200,000 men killed in action, with another over 420,000 who soon died of their horrific injuries. And, easily more than 400,000 survivors suffered the rest of their lives from devastating maimings and debilitating wounds. These casualties amounted to well over 1 Million total Americans, not to mention the many civilian estates and towns of the south which were literally pulverized by bombardment, raped and looted, and razed by intentional burnings by Union storm-troopers. How does one justify this incredible loss of wealth, blood, and lives in order for a powerful few to force others, their supposed neighbors, to remain loyal to such a corrupt “union”?
•  
• 17) Not only did Lincoln miss the whole point of the U.S. Constitution, a critical balance of political power distributed among the individual States and of their residents, The People, but he was the first president to issue Executive Orders, circumventing the U.S. Constitution. He was also the first to issue a military draft in America. He suspended the essential right of habeas corpus at times throughout the war; he jailed, detained, and harassed THOUSANDS of dissenting Northern Citizens who dared speak out about his despotic abuses, especially newspaper publishers – many of whom were summarily shut down. He had his most vocal critic in the U.S. Senate, a sitting U.S. Senator, arrested and deported! He even issued an arrest warrant for his thugs to capture the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States – when the other branches of Government weren’t sufficiently compliant to him! (The list of Lincoln’s un-Constitutional abuses goes on, and on…)
•  
• 18} Lincoln, it is true, revealed himself to be a master politician, gifted wordsmith and orator, was also a very successful lawyer, lobbyist, protectionist, inflationist, and imperialist; but he also turned out to be a bona-fide dictator who ran roughshod over the U.S. Constitution for years in his pursuit of Federal concentration of Power. – and, it turned out to set our nation on a distinctly totalitarian, if not fascist path with the apparent annihilation of State’s Sovereignty – the original essence of our Federal Republic!
• 19) Lincoln’s hegemonic legacy may have ultimately “freed the slaves” (posthumously, via Constitutional Amendment), but it only came about from his explicitly greater motivation of enslaving all of the Peoples of The States to a new Federal hegemony – and thus, from his great act of heroism: “Saving the Union”. In the grandest of irony, the immoral institution of Black Slavery in the U.S. was replaced by a new covenant of governmental enslavement, a loss of their individual God-given sovereignties, to a new Federal Master - a fatally flawed, cherished sentiment which is today kept alive by a phalanx of leftist political apparatchiks, including many Neo-conservatives, who ally with an army of Lincoln cultists, who cannot seem to free their minds from the self-imposed tethers of their perpetual, and delusional Lincoln hagiographies and deification.

Perhaps Booth Was On to Something?

WorldNetDaily

A new lawsuit is challenging Barack Obama’s eligibility to be president, and this one targets Congress as a defendant for its “

Faux-bama

failure” to uphold the constitutional demand to make sure Obama qualified before approving the Electoral College vote that actually designated him as the occupant of the Oval Office.

The new case raises many of the same arguments as dozens of other cases that have flooded into courtrooms around the nation since the November election.

It is being brought on behalf of Charles F. Kerchner Jr., Lowell T. Patterson, Darrell James Lenormand and Donald H. Nelson Jr. and names as defendants Barack Hussein Obama II, the U.S., Congress, the Senate, House of Representatives and former Vice President Dick Cheney along with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

Where’s the proof Barack Obama was born in the U.S. or that he fulfills the “natural-born American” clause in the Constitution? If you still want to see it, join more than 193,000 others and sign up now!

As WND has reported, dozens of lawsuits have been filed over Obama’s eligibility to assume the office of the president. Many have been dismissed while others remain pending.

The cases, in various ways, have alleged Obama does not meet the “natural born citizen” clause of the U.S. Constitution, Article 2, Section 1, which reads, “No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President.”

Some of the legal challenges have alleged Obama was not born in Hawaii, as he insists, but in Kenya. Obama’s American mother, the suits contend, was too young at the time of his birth to confer American citizenship to her son under the law at the time.

Other challenges have focused on Obama’s citizenship through his father, a Kenyan subject to the jurisdiction of the United Kingdom at the time of his birth, thus making him a dual citizen. The cases contend the framers of the Constitution excluded dual citizens from qualifying as natural born.

Several details of Obama’s past have added twists to the question of his eligibility and citizenship, including his family’s move to Indonesia when he was a child, his travel to Pakistan in the ’80s when such travel was forbidden to American citizens and conflicting reports from Obama’s family about his place of birth.

Perhaps the most perplexing detail, however, has been Obama’s refusal to allow the public release of a signed “vault” copy of his original birth certificate.

The new case was launched in New Jersey, and focuses on the alleged failure in Congress to follow the Constitution.

That document, the lawsuit states, “provides that Congress must fully qualify the candidate ‘elected’ by the Electoral College Electors.”

In provides, the lawsuit said, “If the president-elect shall have failed to qualify, then the vice president elect shall act as president until a president shall have qualified.”

“There existed significant public doubt and grievances from plaintiffs and other concerned Americans regarding Obama’s eligibility to be president and defendants had the sworn duty to protect and preserve the Constitution and specifically under the 20th Amendment, Section 3, a Constitutional obligation to confirm whether Obama, once the electors elected him, was qualified.”

“Congress is the elected representative of the American people and the people speak and act through them,” the lawsuit said.

The defendants “violated” the 20th Amendment by failing to assure that Obama meets the eligibility requirements,” the lawsuit said.

In the Russian publication Pravda, commentator Mark S. McGrew addressed the subject:

“The United States Congress is required, under the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations, to count the Electoral College votes for president and vice president, ask if any member of Congress objects to the count and hear that Congressman’s objection. This is under Title 3, Chapter 1, Section 15, ‘Upon such reading of any such certificate of paper, the president of the Senate shall call for objections, if any,’” he wrote.

Several of the cases – including those brought by Orly Taitz, Cort Wrotnowski, Leo Donofrio and Philip Berg, already have been heard in conference at the U.S. Supreme Court, which has failed to have a hearing on any of the merits involved.

Taitz, in fact, is requesting information from the Supreme Court about a meeting eight of its justices held with Obama, a defendant in her case, before the justices reviewed the issues of the case in a private conference.

Several of the cases not scheduled for hearings at the Supreme Court still remain active at lower court levels, from which emergency requests to the high court were launched.

“I know that Mr. Obama is not a constitutionally qualified natural born citizen and is ineligible to assume the office of president of the United States,” Berg said in a statement on his ObamaCrimes.com website.

“Obama knows he is not ‘natural born’ as he knows where he was born and he knows he was adopted in Indonesia; Obama is an attorney, Harvard Law grad who taught Constitutional law; Obama knows his candidacy is the largest ‘hoax’ attempted on the citizens of the United States in over 200 years; Obama places our Constitution in a ‘crisis’ situation; and Obama is in a situation where he can be blackmailed by leaders around the world who know Obama is not qualified,” Berg’s statement continued.

A partial listing and status update for several of the cases surrounding Obama’s eligibility to serve as president is below:

• Philip J. Berg, a Pennsylvania Democrat, demanded that the courts verify Obama’s original birth certificate and other documents proving his American citizenship. Berg’s latest appeal, requesting an injunction to stop the Electoral College from selecting the 44th president, was denied.
• Leo Donofrio of New Jersey filed a lawsuit claiming Obama’s dual citizenship disqualified him from serving as president. His case was considered in conference by the U.S. Supreme Court but denied a full hearing.
• Cort Wrotnowski filed suit against Connecticut’s secretary of state, making a similar argument to Donofrio. His case was considered in conference by the U.S. Supreme Court, but was denied a full hearing.
• Former presidential candidate Alan Keyes headlines a list of people filing a suit in California, in a case handled by the United States Justice Foundation, that asks the secretary of state to refuse to allow the state’s 55 Electoral College votes to be cast in the 2008 presidential election until Obama verifies his eligibility to hold the office. The case is pending, and lawyers are seeking the public’s support.
• Chicago attorney Andy Martin sought legal action requiring Hawaii Gov. Linda Lingle to release Obama’s vital statistics record. The case was dismissed by Hawaii Circuit Court Judge Bert Ayabe.
• Lt. Col. Donald Sullivan sought a temporary restraining order to stop the Electoral College vote in North Carolina until Barack Obama’s eligibility could be confirmed, alleging doubt about Obama’s citizenship. His case was denied.
• In Ohio, David M. Neal sued to force the secretary of state to request documents from the Federal Elections Commission, the Democratic National Committee, the Ohio Democratic Party and Obama to show the presidential candidate was born in Hawaii. The case was denied.
• In Washington state, Steven Marquis sued the secretary of state seeking a determination on Obama’s citizenship. The case was denied.
• In Georgia, Rev. Tom Terry asked the state Supreme Court to authenticate Obama’s birth certificate. His request for an injunction against Georgia’s secretary of state was denied by Georgia Superior Court Judge Jerry W. Baxter.
• California attorney Orly Taitz has brought a case, Lightfoot vs. Bowen, on behalf of Gail Lightfoot, the vice presidential candidate on the ballot with Ron Paul, four electors and two registered voters.

Private investigator Douglas Hagmann of HomelandSecurityUS.com reported earlier he found 13 cases challenging Obama’s eligibility still active or semi-active.

In addition, other cases cited on the RightSideofLife blog as raising questions about Obama’s eligibility include:

• In Texas, Darrel Hunter vs. Obama later was dismissed.
• In Ohio, Gordon Stamper vs. U.S. later was dismissed.
• In Texas, Brockhausen vs. Andrade.
• In Washington, L. Charles vs. Obama.
• In Hawaii, Keyes vs. Lingle, dismissed.

WND senior reporter Jerome Corsi had gone to both Kenya and Hawaii prior to the election to investigate issues surrounding Obama’s birth. But his research and discoveries only raised more questions.

The biggest question was why, if a Hawaii birth certificate exists as his campaign has stated, Obama hasn’t simply ordered it made available to settle the rumors.

The governor’s office in Hawaii said there is a valid certificate but rejected requests for access and left ambiguous its origin: Does the certificate on file with the Department of Health indicate a Hawaii birth or was it generated after the Obama family registered a Kenyan birth in Hawaii?

Obama’s half-sister, Maya Soetoro, has named two different Hawaii hospitals where Obama could have been born. There have been other allegations that Obama actually was born in Kenya during a time when his father was a British subject. A one point a Kenyan ambassador said Obama’s birth place in Kenya already was recognized and honored.

Can you Spot the 'Free States of America'?

Dear Liberal Brother,

Dead serious question here:  What the Hell is happening to our nation?  Do you think we’re now on the path to heaven on Earth?

Do you approve of the “Stimulus” package, the most gargantuan orgy of pork and liberal interest-group payoffs ever before seen ~$820B ?  Is that because you hope to get a nice chunk of it slopped into your trough?

Seriously, I think we (Left and Right) each hold two irreconcilable worldviews which are soon coming to a explosive head in this country.  It’s time to talk about an old, time-honored word – Secession.  Imagine a world without Conservatives – wouldn’t that be fantastic?!

If I, and millions of my like-minded brethren, decided to form a new federation of States, would you care?  Or, like Lincoln, would fascism take over the Left so as to force these States to “stay with the Progressive Club” – or face massive bloodshed?  Since Leftists seem to abhor guns, and trumpet their desires for Peace and such, wouldn’t you just let these States go peacefully (the ones with most of the guns)?

Whatever Happened to "We, The People"?

You may not be aware of this, but per the U.S. Constitution, a mechanism exists for the States to call for a new Constitutional Convention – and, lo and behold, we are now only a few States away in number from one being called.  Most Leftists have been itching for decades to get their hands on the old parchment, rip it to shreds (so to speak), and begin anew, with all kinds of great stuff like Universal HealthCare etc. embedded.  How fantastic would that be?  This is not a joke – it can soon be made a reality!

If a new Con-Con is convened, and a brand new, hardcore crafted Constitution comes from it, I will GLADLY let Michigan, and New York, and Massachusetts, and California, and ALL the Leftist dominated States SECEDE PEACEFULLY from the old, obsolete Union.  I will gladly stay with the other States, and with our old decrepit Constitution that we have now – and wish you all the best of luck in your more perfect, “progressive” union.

Seriously, wouldn’t that be cool?!  Just think of your new nation, backed up by your own living, breathing Constitution which is infused with your values:

• 1) Unlimited Abortion
• 2) Free HealthCare
• 3) No Firearms
• 4) Generational Ponzi-schemes galore (such as Social Security)
• 5) Government-run totalitarian schools
• 6) Massive, unchecked Immigration
• 7) Super-huge, loop-hole ridden Tax schemes
• 8} Government-controlled Business Sector
• 9) Bending over for the ‘Religion of Peace’
• 10) Prohibition of Motor Vehicles, No Carbon!
• 11) Opening up Guantanamo, and ALL Prisons
• 12) Free Love and Unlimited Drugs
• 13) “Gay” Rights, and “Marriages”, and “Priests”
• 14) Gov. Price Fixing – Maximum prices
• 15) Forced Minimum Wages – $50/hr, or more!
• 16) Responsibility-free Loans and Investing
• 17) Extra Perks. for Government Employees
• 18} More Advantages for Union Bosses
• 19) A God-like worship for your “President”
• 20) More Racial Quotas and Obsessions of Guilt
• 21) Squelching of all dissenting right-wing thought, principle, opinion
• 22) New definitions of “equality”, “diversity”, “tolerance” etc.

Again, I would gladly let Leftists Secede, and as many States who want to join them, by crafting their perfect Progressive Constitution.  I will not put up a fight like Lincoln and the “North” did in 1861.  Did you know how many young men (sometimes boys) died gruesome deaths in order to “Save the Union” – keep the voluntary club together by force?  Would you believe about 625,000 young men, brothers, died of their battle-wounds for such a cause?!  And this number does not even count civilian deaths.  What would be the equivalent death toll today given our population count?  Crazy isn’t it?

Remember For What We Fought - Freedom?

But the idea of Secession is NOT crazy.  It’s what’s needed, before our two IRRECONCILABLE world views thunderously clash in the not-so-distant future.  I want to see peace, not battle – although, all options remain on the table.  We will become a free people again.

I do not want to live under your version of earthly nirvana, but by all means, would love to see you live in your own stew – of your own liking.

What do you think?  Is this not a great idea?  The Progressive States of America living peacefully, side by side with the Free States of America?

Isn’t it high time to start planning?

'Scrappy' Joe Jokes of Roberts' Superior Memory

Just when you thought the intimate relationship between Chief Justice John Roberts and the White House could not get any more bizarre, Vice-Usurper of The United States, Joseph Biden called up the Chief Justice yesterday to give him a heartfelt “apology”.

Why?  Because ol’ “Scrappy Joe” made a comment, an offhand joke in front of the cameras and The Usurper, stating that his “memory was not as good as the Chief Justice’s” – in reference to the botched Oath of Office administered at the recent (phony) Inauguration – even as several cases continue to be filed before the court to force the SCOTUS to resolve the Constitutional crisis as to Barack Hussein Obama II never meeting the qualifications to serve as POTUS.

The Chief Justice was legally requested, in advance of the Inauguration, to recuse himself from the swearing in for the obvious and massive conflict of interest presented.  Instead, Chief Justice Roberts botched the Oath of Office, sneaked over to the White House to botch it again without swearing on a Bible, and now is accepting personal phone-calls from Joseph Biden for further schmoozing?

The Supreme Court Justices even held a closed-door, “private” meeting with these two phonies prior to the Inauguration, even while cases are pending against their illegitimacy and illegality to assume Office; any secret meeting between them should be considered Ex Parte communications (w/o We The People being present).  Now, it’s reported that Mr. Biden can court “private”, “good conversations” where he can whisper sweet nothings into the Chief Justice’s ear Ex Parte as well!

If the Chief Justice is going to continue to simply ignore his Constitutional duties to vet these intimates from another branch of Government, and disregard any semblance of his obligation to remain a fair and utterly impartial arbiter of ‘blind’ justice – couldn’t Mr. Roberts and his two Executive admirers do the decent thing – and just Get A Room together?!
